Midway through the month of August, and yet another shift in the Top 10 chart. A few apps that I’m frankly surprised are still on the list, some new entries. All in all, a good week for applications. As always, if you’ve tried any of the applications on this list, please share your thoughts/opinions with other readers in the comments.

And now, your Top 10 most downloaded applications for the week of August 16th, 2010.

Barcode Scanner is another longstanding member of the Top 10 downloads column. Barcode scanner is an application that allows users to scan barcodes and search for price/availability of particular items at many local stores. It also has a QR code reader. It is a must-have for Android.

This one I’d advise you against downloading. The developers over at TweetDeck posted that someone took their beta application and posted it on the Android market (I believe he even charged $1 for it). You should, however go over to TweetDeck’s blog site to install the official version of TweetDeck. Oh, and read about our first impressions of TweetDeck.

Chrome to Phone is Google’s official release of the Chrome to Phone feature for Froyo phones. This application allows you to click a button on your Google Chrome browser and send web pages, directions, maps, and various other kinds of content right to your phone.

Most Tweeted This Week

This list isn’t very helpful, you shouldn’t include any apps that made the list the previous week.

I’m gonna have to agree with Chad, this article is pointless if you include apps from previous weeks (unless they were updated).

You’re both missing the point though. This is the top 10 most downloaded apps, not the top 10 recommended apps. Anthony can’t choose what the 10 are goong to be. This is merely a statistical breakdown of what has been downloaded, nothing more. There is another posting started about the androidandme recommended download of the week. That may be more of what you’re looking for….

Exactly… And I actually think it’s helpful to see apps on here multiple times. Because if they continue to top the charts, I should probably check it out if I haven’t already.

Now that Chrome to phone has been released, could you start posting market:// links for apps please?

Multicon widget is pretty sweet.

I’d love to see a list of top 10 paid apps for the week.

Top 10 paid app sales would be great. That may help boost sales more than the previously proposed pledge.

Thank you.
